I’ve got one of these. Make sure you are on a modern version of zeros and search for the showtec act fresnel 150 RGBAL. That is a library fixture. You can then edit it and rename to the act profile as it has an identical DMX patch. Let me know any problems. Link to the manual below if you’re not sure how to edit and rename fixture. The only thing you need to change though is the name. Also don’t use RDM or rigsync as that will complicate things. https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/edit-export Brian

Hi @DSUK73, Welcome to the Zero 88 Forum. Using a Phantom ZerOS Unlock Dongle unlocks the maximum amount of channels available for the fully upgraded console you are emulating (e.g. emulating a FLX will give you 8192 channels = 16 universes, emulating a Solution will give you 2048 channels = 4 universes). Any USB to DMX device that supports the ENTTEC protocol should work with Phantom ZerOS, I personally use the ENTTEC DMX USB Pro and have two of them. Each ENTTEC DMX USB Pro device will output a single universe of DMX. You can, of course, output DMX over Ethernet via your computer's network port for less cabling out of your PC if you have an Ethernet gateway. Once the USB to DMX device is plugged in, it can be configured in SETUP > Devices. This allows you to set the universe being output on that device, output rate, etc. Purchasing an Unlock Dongle is a great investment and I highly recommend it. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions. Archie

Ever since acquiring my Frog 2, I noticed that with the Dockhouse (Capture) Demo Presentation show file for ZerOS (available from Zero 88 here), it is of course a .zos file. The change from .isf to .zos for show files was made in ZerOS 7.9.8, a version of which is after 7.8.2.39 (the last supported software version for Frog 2) meaning Frog 2 only loads show files saved with the .isf extension. This means my fellow Frog 2 users won't be able to use the Capture Demo File for learning or having a play/experiment, so I have "converted" the .zos show file to .isf in order to be compatible with Frog 2. I imagine the audience for this won't be too large anymore since I feel Frog 2 popularity has died down significantly, but I'm posting this as a public resource in case it is of use to anybody who still uses a Frog 2 or a console on a version of ZerOS before 7.9.8. When loading in the show file, you'll be told it was from a Frog 2 and that some data won't be loaded. There shouldn't be any reason that some data won't be loaded with the way I've done this, but if you are loading this file onto a Frog 2, UDF 1 (User Defined Fader) will have a stored state on it. If loading this onto a different console type without UDFs (e.g. Solution), this should be transferred onto playback/submaster 1 (theoretically). It is also worth noting that this .isf show file is only within the limitations of Frog 2 - meaning the other higher universes found on the .zos version won't be seen or usable (Universe 5 & 6). The attached show file loads with the newer ZerOS skin if on Frog 2 - other consoles have that skin by default regardless, to provide a familiar user interface appearance to the other consoles people may have used with capture in comparison to the light grey and green classic theme on Frog 2. I have tested the .isf file with the Zero 88 provided Dockhouse 2022 file designed for the .zos version and it does work correctly. Anyway.. here's the show file, hope it is of use.
